Does anyone want a Blossom thread? Not sure if I'll keep doing it but saw this recommended on another thread and I find it more fun than NYT Spelling Bee. (Which you can't get far on for free anyway).

Today was annoying, because I forgot I could use the singular of some long plurals I found!

Is there a link to share scores? I couldn’t see how.

That's a fun little game, thanks for informing us about it op!

@Sunnysidegold no problem! I found it here and couldn't see a thread yet. I've enjoyed the Connections ones.

Some good scores here!

@ReignOfError there is a purple "Share" button top right for me once I've completed it to copy and paste the results.

Just seen that it shows you all the possible words afterwards too. It's only my second day playing it.

I was SOO cross with that one from 8th Dec...they did not allow micronism (or micronisms). WTF? They ARE words.

I got 129 and my longest word was 7 letters.

I now realise you can use the letters more than once in a word so hopefully I will do better next time.

I've gone back and done a few older ones for practice and getting a bit better. Found today's more difficult though.

@sashh that should help. Also trying to use the letter in yellow once or more for bonus points.

You press share, then copy.

Bignanna · 09/12/2024 22:13

Sometimes it won’t accept words, even if correct, and some won’t accept plurals, presumably because it’s too easy to just add s. Otherwise, I do enjoy it and it helps keep the old brain sharp!
